Any thoughts? Worth getting for Xbox360?

I played it on PC, and loved it. Really enjoyed the game (with two kids, I rarely ever get to finish games, but this one drove me to some late nights)
Dragon Age was also good. Go Bioware~ =P

this game is THE BOMB
the story has serious depth, and the characters are dynamic
the action kicks ass and you will want to play this game over again and again
A+ no joke, one of my all time favourites and i am more of an RTS guy

Playing the first one is an absolute MUST. The second one will pull choices you made from your first game and essentially have a custom universe ready for you. Don't expect something huge from this custom universe, but it's the little things that definitely make it stand out.
The voice acting is amazing, gameplay is great, and a story that will entice you. For a review that doesn't blow smoke up it's ass (like most of the reviews out there), check out this australian/british wanker.

This is probably one of the best RPGs released in a while. Knowing RS though, I bet more people here played FF13 than Mass Effect, which is a shame and almost sad in a way.
Western RPGs have gotten so much better than Japanese. And this is coming from a JRPG fan of the PS1/PS2 era.

From all the games I've every played in my lifetime (I've played A LOT), hands down nothing comes close to Mass Effect 2.
Fun-ass RPG, a GREAT shooter. Helluva ending! And intro! Fuck it, EVERYTHING rocked.
Replay value is awesome as well coz you can play it over and over again with new character classes and decisions every single time.
Still consider it the best game I've ever played for sure.
I highly suggest you play the first one though because your saved game file and decisions carry over to the second game. Story is very connected. Mass Effect 1 was also superb in its own rights.
And considering M.E.2 sells for cheap nowadays (it's on sale for $30 brand new in most places), it's waaay worth every penny.
GOTY!
(sorry I'm just a gigantic fanboy of the game. finished the game multiple times, including in the insanity difficulty level. haha)

You basically get to start from the beginning, but with all your gear, skills, and level.
